Truax No Till Grass Seeder - Flex II

In 2013 the Marin County Resource Conservation District donated their Truax Flex II No Till Seeder to the agriculture department. The Marin RCD was unable to keep up the maintenance of the unit so it was donated to the program to maintain and rent out to local farmers and ranchers. All general maintenance is performed by students in the agriculture mechanics shop to gain real world applications to the skills they learn in class.

The seeder requires at least a 50hp - 75hp tractor with hydrualic connections to pull and a 3/4 ton truck with a 2 5/16 ball on a bumper hitch to pull the trailer. The seeder rents for $200 a day if the ranch is in MALT (Marin Agriculture Land Trust) and $300 a day if the ranch is not in MALT. Please make all checks out to the Tomales FFA. All funds raised from the rental of the seeder go to the maintenance of the machine and to help support the Tomales FFA Chapter.

​Please contact the agriculture department at 707-878-2286 ext. 271 for more information or to reserve the seeder. Below is the rental agreement and the user manual for our seeder. Any damage to the seeder during use by the renter, will be charged to the renter at the current shop rate of tractor shops in the area.
